[QUOTE=kracker;302483]You're right, I use strawberry perl, just install, reboot, edit the submission script to your needs, and run :P (it sets associations, if you use it that way.)[/QUOTE]

Very cool!!! Thanks -- I didn't know about Strawberry. I'll add a mention to it on the spider page.

One thing though... I found that just letting the script run with the default association (perl.exe) caused a DOS window to pop up for a split second. If, however, you use "wperl.exe submit_spider.pl" in the WinBlows Task Scheduler, no such window appears.

Hmm... strange. I usually never use it that way, but it works. :loco:

P.S.: I use a script that automatically launches that when it detects a results.txt in one or two of my selected directories (in my script)

Mind posting your script? I'd be curious to see it.

It's a bat script... (only windows)... and the script is rough.... give me...a...few... :help::unsure:

:missingteeth:

How many "workers" should I make it support? (max)

I run up to 25 TF workers at a time, but you can just get me started and I can expand as necessary. Don't worry about the 'roughness', I use many bat files myself, and I know they can be that way. Right now I use a script that runs every hour, collects everything and then submits if there is something to submit. I was just wondering how you check for a results file (or how often)?

I attached my submit.bat file (rename to .bat), so you can see it. If you have any questions, let me know. Windows Task Scheduler just runs submit.bat every hour.

BTW - I use ActivePerl

Ah... your's look much better than mine... I'll add ethernet support.

P.S.: MY script is simple really, maybe too simple... what it does is looks for a "results.txt in several directories every x often, then if it finds it it executes the submit perl script.... then all over again...

Oh, I forgot to post it....
